Morning all, something for the (international) weekend: Derby County's cult hero Costa Rican joined us for a nostalgic chat in our latest interview special. Wanchope, who scored 28 Rams goals in all competitions, explained how he nearly became a pro basketball player before coming to England, his fiery relationship with Jim Smith, his favourite Derby teammate, and ofcourse *that* Old Trafford debut goal.

Having listened back (I had to sit this pod out) I think the Roos criticism part of a wider point that he just isn't inspiring confidence at the moment. He makes 4 decent saves in that game - two of them were OK but not worldies - quite close to him and a good height. He does save two one-on-ones tbf. He was far from the only player who got flak - we also singled out Huddlestone, Lawrence and Dowell.
Dont think I'd have agreed with the unanimous shout that he has to be dropped, but I'd say we're one or two games from giving Hamer a go.

Did that really happen? A disastrous London away day sees Derby's second 3-0 defeat in less than a week - the first time they've lost consecutive games by three goals since the end of Paul Clement's reign in 2016. What on earth went wrong at Brentford - and was it a freak result or a worrying sign of problems to come? Richard, Tom and Anton pick the bones from a week to forget.

Have watched the crucial ten minutes from Episode 6. It's well put together and glorious for obvious reasons.
There's a wispy accoustic cover of Marching On Together which made me gag (personal pet hate), but the footage they have of the away fans, Mel Morris celebrating in the stands, different angles of the goals... and Russell Crowe saying 'Seconds into the second half, Leeds are shaken to their core', makes it very enjoyable!
The bit you want is from 21:00 until 32:00 in Episode 6.

Morning, latest SBW podcast below - cheers!
Derby County are off and running for the 19/20 campaign, as Chris, Tom and Anton look back on the Rams' unbeaten start against Huddersfield and Swansea.

Hello,
Our Season Review DCFC podcast is available now on iTunes, Spotify and Soundcloud:
The promotion dream is over for Derby County as Frank Lampard's men fall at the last hurdle in the Championship Play-off Final. Was Wembley a bad end to an otherwise positive season?
Chris, Richard and Tom look back on the 18/19 campaign - the highs, lows, players and goals of the season, and salute Frank Lampard for an 'entertaining, memorable' year. There's also your marks out of 10 for Frank, transfer targets, and one last Rams trivia quiz for the road.
Cheers for listening and for all the interactions this season. We'll be back in July for pre-season. Have a great summer!

Our Leeds review podcast is out now! Our bumper episode includes:
- Fan reactions on full time
- Leeds analysis: One of the best nights of our Derby-supporting lives?
- What caused the Leed collapse and how Frank's playoff heroes capitalised.
- Next stop Wembley! Can Derby pull it off? We chat to Dan Bardell from The Villa View for the opposition perspective.

I realise everyone probably wants to forget about the first leg, but we're not fairweather podcasters so we've given our reaction to the 1-0 defeat to Leeds: Chris, Richard and Tom pick the bones out of a disappointing display in the play-off semi-final first leg, which leaves the Rams with a mountain to climb if they're to reach Wembley. There's discussion of Lampard's selection, *that* penalty decision, the headbutt, and more. Can Derby County rewrite history and still make the Championship play-off final?
Cheers,
Chris

Cheers,
Chris

In our latest podcast, we asked folk on our social channels to sum up their current feelings on DCFC in five words... there were some great responses.

Was trying to work out how many characters they'll kill off next week - it's 84 mins long so could be in double figures!
Theon's in trouble for me - just don't know where else there is for his story to go. Plus he volunteered to guard Bran. 😅

These were my thoughts. Always lots of reunions and scene setting in the opening episode. Some cool moments and the boy at the end was creepy AF.
Thought they could've done more with Theon/Yara, which seemed a bit rushed.
